ANDn November 7, two and a half months ago, Luis Suárez beat Cillessen to overtake Atlético in Mestalla. The Uruguayan received a ball from the front and with the help of an unsuccessful Diakhaby, scored his seventh goal of the championship. The latest to date. Since then, he has not seen a door in the League. Only Rayo Majadahonda in the Cup saw the Uruguayan celebrate a goal.
Against Osasuna, Cádiz, Mallorca, Real Madrid, Seville, Granada and Rayo Vallecano, Suárez left without scoring. Without a doubt his worst streak as a rojiblanco. Not only that day did his drought begin, despite playing a good game at Mestalla, where he participated in the goal of Vrsaljko and he was more successful in the collective game than in other games, the Uruguayan began to see how he lost his untouchable status. Since then, he has not completed 90 minutes in any game.
Substitute against Osasuna, Mallorca and Real Madrid. Substituted against Cádix, Seville, Granada and Rayo Vallecano. And absent due to suspension against Villarreal. If we add to that the substitutions in the Super Cup and the Cup against Real Sociedad, it seems that Suárez has to start over at Atlético. And it is not a bad scenario to do it. The Metropolitano needs the goals of the charrúa. And everything indicates that he will start tonight against Valencia. A rival against whom he has scored nine goals in the League, two of them as rojiblanco.
Last cartridges as rojiblanco?
The situation of the Uruguayan at Atlético invites us to think that he is facing his last months with the rojiblanca. Simeone did not want to speak at a press conference when asked about the possible renewal of 9. Now, as long as he has an ounce of energy left, the striker will seek to continue doing what he has done all his life, goals. For this he needs to improve his and his team a lot. Bringing him closer to the area becomes one of the main objectives when he is on the field. Suárez starts again and does so before whom the counter stopped.
